LEBANON Feb. 2.-The case against Henry
Underwood and Charles Hammond, charged
with burglarizing the store Of John R. Beach, at
Ruse's Mills in this county, on the night of
Dec. IA, 1885, was called in the Circuit Court
here yesterday, and is attracting con-
siderable attention. While the prosecu-
ton is ostensibly trying Henry Underwood

fort is to work up sentiment against Gideon

What and.Blasting" Means.

"What is sand blasting 2" asked a
Chicago Herald writer of man whose
life had been spent in decorating glass.
1.-THE grinding or decorating of glass
with saud-a secret process, the inside
facts of which we cannot disclose" re.
piled the expert. "Come upstairs and
see sand blast machine" The machine
suggest, a cider mill in shape, or cheese
press. The glass is laid on rubber belts
at the side and is then fed into the ma
chine. AS soon as it disappears from
view some rubber flaps come down and
prevent the pressure in the interior from
escaping. This pressure is cxerted by
wind and sand-a 20-horse power engine
being required to raise the "blow v
which. drives the sand to the glass.
Looking through the window in the CEN
tire of the machine "gun is disclosed.
1t has large mouth-shaped opening, at
which it is loaded with 2O-horse power
ammunition of wind and sand. Before
the ammunition is allowed to leave the
gun, the aperture narrows to about one
sixth the width of the loading point.
This condenses the sand 80 that when
it leaves the gun it strikes the glass with
such force as to eat into the surface.
When the glass has been exposed it passes
out of the machine on rubber belts at
the opposite side. This process is called
grinding, and one machine will grind
about 900 feet in day.
Now for the decorative part. Sup
pose the sandblaster wishes to present on
a square of glass certain design. He
simply covers the surface with beeswax
and certain mixture laid on over the
glass in exact duplicate of the design
required. The glass passes into the ma
chine. The sand is fired from the gun.
but this time it grinds only the exposed
parts. The portion covered with bees
wax and the secret mixtureis not touched
by the sand, and when the plate emerges
from the machine and the wax, ETC., are
washed off, behold the design standing
out in sharp contrast to the ground SUR
face which the sand has scarifed.
This is the A B G of sand-blasting.
The process is susceptible of much
elaboration, and one improvement which
was patented last year by a Chicago gen
tleman is called the "ammograph." The
pictures are first drawn on the back of
the glass by the artist with color which
will resist the action of the sand blast.
1t is then subjected to the stream of
sand, which cuts the glass in all parts
which are not covered more or less by
the resistant. The resistant is then
washed off clean, leaving the pictures
cut into the glass. They are next sill
vered over, if desired, to give greater
brilliancy. The effect is that of multi
plicity Of colors, but no paint or color
ing of any kind is used, the effect being
obtained by the different shades of the
ulass itself.
